AND MODERNIZATION ACT OF 2003" REACTION TO THE REPUBLICAN MEDICARE CONFERENCE AGREEMENT "The Alliance for Retired
Americans strongly opposes the proposed Medicare bill being touted by Republican

drug bills now in conference becomes law, one-third of retirees who now have
employer-sponsored prescription drug benefits will lose that coverage." "This is a bad deal for
America's seniors." "Congress should reject this
deeply flawed plan and develop a true bipartisan bill that provides a
prescription drug plan that strengthens the Medicare program." "We urge you to vote against
the conference agreement." "We urge you to vote against
the conference agreement." "The proposed Medicare
conference agreement is fundamentally flawed." "New Proposal Provides Too
Little Help for Seniors, Too Much Harm to Traditional Medicare" "We are writing to express
our strong opposition to the latest proposed agreement on the Medicare
prescription drug bill." "...the Medicare Rights

than no bill for people with Medicare. The legislation now being promoted
by Congressional leaders cannot meet even this low bar." "...the current bill does not
protect Americans and should be opposed." "The Medicare Prescription
Drug bill is a bad deal for public employees and most Americans." "The National Health Law
